YOU only need to look at your Instagram feed to see that Malaysians are going everywhere for a local vacation.
Islands from Langkawi to Rawa and Redang seem to be favourite choices, with the affluent staying at private villas. Port Dickson, Melaka and Cameron Highlands have all recorded high tourist arrivals too.
Malaysians are in solidarity, not only to fight Covid-19, but also to keep the local economy going, and that's a very good thing.
Two big names have introduced new luggage for your Cuti-Cuti Malaysia trips.
Rimowa has its famous aluminium luggage in Scarlet and Marine for the moneyed traveller. The cabin-size four-wheeler costs RM4,750.
OLD CLASSIC
Travellers today want to make a distinct statement. While some choose stickers or other accessories, a lot want to stand out in a pop of colour.
The Marine is inspired by the legendary blue of the Mediterranean while Scarlet is based on the plumage of the Scarlet Ibis, a red bird native to the Los Llanos region. This vast tropical grassland plain is situated to the east of the Andes in Colombia and Venezuela.
Crafted in the brand's premium aluminium, the new luggage uses an innovative combination of anodising processes.
Vibrant pigments are inscribed directly into the suitcase's aluminium skin, lending the design a rich, reflective appearance.
BOUNCING BACK
Meanwhile, Samsonite's Proxis is a new line of high-performance luggage that uses an innovative material produced at the brand's own production plant.
The material bounces back into shape easily and is highly resilient in resisting shocks.
Made in Europe with layer-by-layer strengthened Roxkin material and self-reinforced design, the luggage offers remarkable resilience, strength and lightness.
The 75cm spinner weighs only 2.9kg. It has smooth double wheels and an elongated double tube pull handle for effortless manoeuvring.
It has two spacious compartments with divider pads and in-height adjustable cross ribbon. There's also a dedicated power bank pocket on the SP55, the smallest size in the range.
